Rethinking School Lunch November 6, 2007

The Center for Ecoliteracy presents an informative and practical two-day seminar based on the framework presented in CEL's popular online Rethinking School Lunch (RSL) guide. The RSL farm-to-school model of food service and curriculum innovation places nutritious school meals at the very center of the learning experience, forging a closer relationship between public education and public health.

Rethinking School Lunch recognizes important connections between children's health, learning potential, classroom study, and hands-on experiences in school gardens, kitchen classrooms, and cafeterias.

This seminar includes a site visit to the acclaimed Edible Schoolyard garden and kitchen program at Martin Luther King Middle School.
